You do not need to pay for cable or satellite to view HDTV programming. If you purchase a separate digital signal decoder and attach a TV antenna to that box, you can watch the over-the-air digital signals from your local TV stations. There _are_ still some things in life that are free.

HDTV compatible means that the TV does not have an internal tuner but can display in the resolution.
If you have a cable or satellite box that outputs HD signals, you can connect to the HDTV compatible TV to see HD programming.

HDTV compatible means that your screen is capable of displaying picture in resolutions of 720p, 1080i or 1080p. This does not mean that your TV has an HDTV tuner or receiver, but that it accepts signals at HDTV standards.
